>>510247904 (OP)Japan has a funny problem of not having free vacation time. And I have no idea why...
You have Golden Week, Obon, Shogatsu.
These are 1 week periods where you have basically a whole week free.
And everyone goes out and SWARMS everywhere.
The trains are so packed no matter what time you can't find seats, flights you can forget.
Shit like Gala Yuzawa gets so full they sell out all the Shinkansen Seats and then people stand around in the train with Skies and Snowboards.
